Would You Like Fries With Your Mutant Chicken Nuggets?

Climate change has scientists trying to create bionic chickens that can withstand the higher temperatures of global warming so people can still have something to eat in a few decades:

Scramble MY babies will you?

Finally some reasonable reaction to the great possibility of change.

Thot Freddie was doing something other than breeding chickens, something involving a decided lack of activity.

I once bought chicken breasts from the plantation (Walmart). I thought it odd that they were inordinately large. Opening the package they smell normal, so I went ahead and baked them. Even though I had seasoned them with rosemary and black pepper, they tasted........weird. So, I took them back and complained. The customer service people gave me a slip and told me I could go get a different package.

That's when I noticed that they were all the same. HUGE. I went back to customer service and asked for a refund.

Something's up, Guys.

I wonder.

If I could get some of whatever they were giving to those chickens maybe it would help me Bench Press more.

Breeding chickens (and cows and pigs, etc.) to produce a product which will increase the investment and meet consumer demands has been happening for a long time.
